Oliver Heldens & Throttle – Waiting [Heldeep Records]
If you were “Waiting” for the collaboration between Oliver Heldens and Throttle, then I’ve got some good news for you. The first offering of 2016 from Heldeep Records is that record from the Dutch future house pioneer and Australian rising star that has been floating around since Oliver Heldens‘ Electric Zoo set in 2015. “Waiting” combines all the elements necesaary to create a future house anthem, and these two producers did it with ease. We get a really sweet taste of each producer’s forté in the first section of the breakdown, before even thinking about the drop. Throttle prides himself on the “dirty disco sound,” and works that in with a funky guitar riff and effected vocal set. From there, Oliver Heldens takes over with a mesmerizing melody that sounds absolutely perfect when put together with that signature layering of synths. The drop of “Waiting” is where it gets even better, since the dirty disco and future house stylings collide in a drop that hits with a wall of bass and wonderful top line.
